Ten-year-old Singaporean Maya is lonely: her grandmother is dead, her mother is focused on her career and her best friend has become a bully. When Aunty M, a domestic worker from Indonesia, joins the family to take care of Maya and her baby sister, Maya is ready to hate her.  However, after Aunty M rescues a fellow maid living in the same building, Maya discovers a side of Singapore hitherto unknown to her.
